| Aoi kinda scares me sometimes....she just seems like the type that is hard to read even for Tomozaki. At the same time, it seems Hanabi's character arc is finally over and they can move on. Erika took a lot of drama this season so far though. Still, at least the show has its time with festival and not always going to be filled with drama. |
 |
| Finally wrapped up the Konno arc and jumping right into the usual cultural festival arc. As usual, an online match. As usual, it's against NONAME. But Tomozaki was uncertain of Hinami's true intentions. In the dressing room after school, Tomozaki asks Hinami about what happened with Konno. Everything went according to Hinami's calculations. When Tomozaki says it was too much, Hinami responds, I couldn't forgive her. Tomozaki feels that Hinami, who meticulously carried out revenge in anger after the fireworks incident, is unlike herself, but the matter with Konno is settled. A temporary calm descends upon the classroom, and preparations for the cultural festival begin. Remember when Tomozaki could barely talk to guys in season 1? Now, he's chatting casually with Izumi. It's amazing how much he's grown. But, honestly, Hinami was kind of annoying this episode. I get that Tomozaki has options, but going after Izumi feels like breaking bro code, you know. And the fact that Hinami appeared first in Tomozaki's imagination hints that she might be his final choice. Also nice seeing best girl Kikuchi make her biweekly appearance. So now it's decision time for Tomozaki and his harem. |
 |
| With Erika Konno's dilemma resolved (though in a rather harsh fashion), Tomozaki is back with Aoi to play Smash Bros., and easily beats her in both real-life and game, citing his high-risk game plan being his steps to victory. What's going on with Aoi? To Aoi, getting back at Erika is just a tit-for-tat karma exchange to on her harassment to Tama, though Tomozaki doesn't see eye-to-eye with her on her solution. And even within the class, only Yuzu can fix the problem between Erika and Ninomae. But other than that, it's the culture festival to prepare before (or alongside) the Christmas season, and they need 4 committee members, though Tomozaki isn't as used to like before. Aoi throwing the "Who does he wants to date" question to Tomozaki, adding Yuzu in there seems like a throwaway, though when it comes to love, Tomozaki just ain't at that point of his social game yet. The possibility is there, though her proposition is quite the push to almost a harem play mode. From games to Instagram, Aoi wants Tomozaki to grow his reputation to get to the romantic goal. This is also true for Fuka, who feels that Aoi has gone too far with her solution, though he forgot to take a selfie with her. With the guys, however, Tomozaki also finds it weird, and once again, he misses his opportunity...though with a bit of push, he managed to get one with the guys, though not without its flaws. Along with Nakamura, Mizusawa and Takei being part of the committee for the guys, it's just the same as Insta, appealing by showing enthusiasm. The girls: Nanami, though being shot down by both Tama and Aoi, Sakura, Yuki and Yuzu. The game face is on for the cultural festival...and simultaneously, the date. |
 |
| Aoi giving some weird advice haha, you gotta wonder what Shuuji would do to Tomozaki if he went after Izumi. |
| Btw nanashi (名無し lit. name without) means "being without a name; being nameless; namelessness". So technically their nicknames have the same meaning lol. Aoi is contradicting herself again here. She's acting on her emotions, which she said she doesn't do at the end of season 1. Interesting. I already saw the "who you want to date" thing in the trailer, so it wasn't surprising for me, but I'm definitely excited to see how this will turn out. Aoi is craaazy, what the hell is she saying. I mean, nothing wrong with wanting to get closer to multiple people, but dating more than one person is totally off the table. What happened to Hexactly lol? The translator changed I guess. Good episode. |
 |
| Aoi talk about how Tomozaki is virgin and she forgetting that she is also virgin lol, girls... ☕ |

| Wait, didn't Tomozaki decline the task to find girlfriend in S1? Plus, it feels like the whole "progress" with Fuuka in S1 just vanished and he started all over again. |
 |
| The episode is very good and as always I'm going to come here and say that I don't like Aoi, but ok, please Tomozaki I'm with you my partner, just don't choose Yuzu, getting married is fine, but never grass-cutted your friends! |
| hello, just a brazilian boy who likes anime |
| Perfect Bliss there all alone in your room having a grand old time playing games with your friends. Cruel as it may sound what Aoi did to Konno was essentially what Koono did to Tama and in my eyes that was the perfect lesson to teach her the importance of treating your classmates with due respect. Aoi sure sprung quite the surprise for Tamozaki with the dating thing though. Still using this to train his decision making skills is smart. As was intruducing SMS into his training. The culture festival looks to be not only an interesting event but a valuble learning oppotunity for Tomozaki as well. |

| When worst girl asks you who best girl is. Tomozaki may not approve of her methods, but with Erika thoroughly destroyed by Aoi, the show can finally go back to its roots of Tomozaki learning How 2 Normie. Today's lessons: Instagram, harems, and the upcoming culture festival. Of course, when pressured to name which girl he likes the most, Tomozaki gives the anime protagonist standard issue non-answer. No luck for best girl Mimimi, but she will be working with Tomozaki on the culture committee. Aoi's dating advice is both scummy and something I completely expect from her at this point. Also, the fact that they explained Erika's current situation has me worried that she'll return with more drama at a later date. Now let's see how cultured Tomozaki will get. |

| The cracks between Tomozaki and Aoi starting to show.. we’re seeing Tomozaki start to grow into his own person and realise that Aoi contradicts herself a lot. She said earlier in their meetings to not act on emotion yet she herself just did that with Tama. Her relationship advice is also extremely toxic. Disrespecting existing relationships, encouraging Tomozaki to pursue a girl with a bf etc. On the bright side, we’re back to the normification of Tomozaki. On today’s list, building a harem, learning how to use IG and grow your account and helping organise a school festival. Lot of important milestones coming up for Tomozaki and I can’t wait to see him tackle em. Wouldn’t even be a choice for me. Going for Mimimi no doubt lol. Tomozaki trying to get Shuji and the others to take a selfie in front of the cardboard waifu was hilarious. good set up episode, a lot of good stuff is about to come and I’m excited to see it animated |

| Here we go, great stuff on the following episodes and like everybody else excited to see it animated after waiting for 3 years |
| Dunno why I expected Konno to join the group lol Nice to see Aoi helping Tomozaki in this task. It Won't be easy... This season has been good so far. It looks like Oregairu sometimes, and this episode gave me some vibes. |
 |
| Finally this episode went back to the vibes from season 1 after the long bullying arc! But did we really need a 5 minutes recap of the events from the previous episodes? Aoi is getting pretty direct with that question! Can't wait to find out who the 2 girls will be. |
| Looks like we’re entering a cultural festival arc, I can definitely see some greatness to come, especially with Tomozaki on the committee with some other high level characters, look I’m using gamer terminology like the show does lol, helps that I game a lot myself. And a big goal within this arc is to decide on two potential girlfriends of the beautiful babes this show has to offer, it really is hard to pick just two but I think for me it would definitely be Mimimi and Kikuchi, I feel like Tomozaki’s choice could be similar but I think there’s a good chance he puts Hinami in there too because he would do that lol, she did tease that too. We also got more insight on why Hinami did what she did with Konno, can’t say I disagree with her actions but it’s hard not to be sus of any of her moves this far in so I can’t blame Tomozaki for being against the level of disrespect that was dealt, Kikuchi added a good point as well about things not being the way they ought to be. And lastly I did really enjoy the Instagram bit, had a feeling Tomozaki would screw that photo up lol, and I am interested in seeing if he can possibly get that account off the ground because that is quite the challenge on its own. |
| Even Tomozaki agrees that what Aoi did was kind of cruel, but it worked, so you can't really argue about that. Cultural Festival Arc started, and Tomozaki is tasked to date one of the girls. This arc definitely looks exciting, so I'm looking forward to it. |
 |
| Aoi: "soretomo watashi?" :D:D:D yes plz! your order one Aoi coming up! who would guess that there will be such a fan serv frame shot showing Aoi's behind? :D the rest of episode was not so great I hope the later part of season will be way better, the class drama took too many episodes and now we got filler like ep.. |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
| Since the show is going to a classical harem anime... |
| Tomazaki x Aoi would be most interesting, just saying. |
| I thought Tomo-chan was starting to see how cruel and manipulative Aoi really is. I was expecting a chat with Mizusawa not readily accepting hw. I think Tomo needs to stay away from girls in his friend group. |
| Wtf were those advices seriously She's a bit crazy... |
 |
| The show is slowly pushing Tomozaki towards the dating phase and it seems like he'd never thought about it. Aoi can be quite something and the way she even teases herself as part of the candidates I don't if will make her the ultimate chosen or not. Kikuchi sure looks like the most probable one but this show might turn it around in a flash. |

| Judging by the PV3 that came out. Likely choices would be Minami and Fuka. I like both, but based on Minami always finishing second… ive got a bad feeling that ive seen this before with blue haired girls. Otherwise im happy that drama with Konno is finished and we get back to self improvement for tomozaki |
| Soooo, if i were Tomozaki, i would rather NOT chose the ruthless queen Hinami and instead go ALL IN for Fuuka! she's the most preferable girl here! 4/5. |
 |
| Finally a tolerable episode. I used to like Mimimi most. But, Yuzu seems all right too. Though I prefer harem above all. The main girl is absolutely right about pursuing multiple girls at once. Ladies love men who are desired by other ladies.  |

| Time to get down to buisness here, who will Tomozaki choose? I'm pretty sure it'll wind down to Minami and Fuuka since those two make the most sense to me. Either way, it'll be interesting to see how Tomozaki will go about this. And we got our next arc coming up, the Cultural Festival. A staple in both Japanese High Schools and in High School Anime. Also we already have out commitee, with the main four boys, Izumi, Minami, and two random classmates. So looks like that'll be our crew going into this arc. Excited to see how this arc will play out. Also, I wonder when Tsumugi will return? |
 |
| It really seems that Aoi hates bullying to an extreme degree! She basically showed everyone what will happen when someone will dare to bully someone else in the class. I wouldn't be surprised if her family members got bullied in the past? Chadozaki should pick the harem route and date ALL of them, including Aoi, lol! Fr, she was doing some secret self-promotion to Tomozaki :D Is Aoi the best girl? Probably.. |
| Back to the task completion stuff and festival next. Will he get a gf by the end? |
 |
| anybody know why Funi-Roll hasn't put Ep6 English Dub up on their services yet? for me it happens Wednesdays at 3pm CST. i think they list it as 1pm PST Wed. if somebody has already started this discussion elsewhere in this thread point me at it. |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |
| Dating and all works mutually. So I'm really not sure why we've already decided one of these girls would be ready to date dude just because lol. Though then again, he's the protag, and that's everything in the world of anime, unfortunately. Basic cultural festival now. |
 |
| I don't really agree with the Instagram route tbh, one can be social without overpublicise oneself What did I expect from a seemingly "perfect Aoi" anyways |
| new arc, new tasks, and the continuation of Tomozaki's bootcamp. He'll gain more social skills. |
